### Installation

```bash
pip install transformers torch accelerate
```

Basic Usage

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

MODEL_NAME = "OpenPathAI/Orbit-3-8B-Llama-thinking"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(MODEL_NAME)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    MODEL_NAME,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto",
)

question = "Explain about malware and how to prevent it"
prompt = f"### Instruction:\n{question}\n\n### Response:\n"

inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model.generate(
        **inputs,
        max_new_tokens=256,
        temperature=0.7,
        top_p=0.9,
        do_sample=True,
        pad_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id,
    )

response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
response = response.replace(prompt, "").strip()

print(response)
```
